I absolutely loved my trip to America this l;ast fall. It was amazingly beautiful, but I had a difficult time understanding their thick accents. I traveled to the east coast, midwest, and west coast, and found their accents slightly different in each area, yet still equally hard to understand. I find it funny that anywhere I went, they tend to run their words together ( a lot like the irish!) and even not pronounce certain letters at all. Ex: Mirror was pronounced "meer" Crayon was always "cran". Lots more, but my question is- What do you do when you travel across the pond to make it easier for you to understand the accents?
